Make sure your EA button is green on the view/toolbar/standard/ EA! Required template either to be saved as Default.tpl or be the first in the list of templates.
2. Also, how does one identify buy/sell candidates pairs ? Any color codes here?
Colors for Trend & Rsi will highlight for the relevant action of Buy / Sell.
3. Does the WP code in the last column mean that the pair price is over WP if the trend is BUY?
This is to just give a view at a glance. Open relevant chart to make a better informed decision.

Tom, pls pitch in for more or to correct me where wrong. Cheers, have a great week. :)

McNish,

Thanks ! Problem #1 solved with clicking on EA to make green... relevant chart now displays.

But re: 2 & 3, the signals look pretty mixed to me on the highlighted pairs ! See attached pic taken minutes ago.

5. Risk 1% per trade and place stop at a previous low using Easy Order to calculate the position size.
Jem, I'm struggling to stomach the losses with an SL on the 240. For some pairs this is a long way. I like your idea of sticking an SL at the last low/high and I've tried this in the past on a few trades but it felt as though I was getting spiked too easily, although I may not have allowed a large enough sample size of trades to really prove this either way. How much of a buffer beyond the last high/low do you set your SL?
Hey mate,

It all depends. For example you can put your SL 100 pips away and aim for 80 pips or you can put it 15 pips away and aim for 80 pips. You'll get much better risk to reward in the second example but more stopouts.

What I do is all dependant on the setup. If it really looks like it's going to go I'll put my SL tighter so I get the better R:R. If I'm not so sold on the setup I'll put it outside of WS1 or WR1 or at a recent high or low, so not so tight and just shut it quick if it goes the wrong way.

I think until you can judge a good setup put the SL as far away as possible and just practice getting the entries right. If you're wrong use H1 CSS and close it straight away if it turns counter trend. Once you get the hang of it then cherry pick the good setups and put your SL tighter.

Tom,

Thanks for your clarification and your Dash. Is there a separate thread you maintain (I only saw your DAsh EA on in here) ?

Sorry for cluttering this thread otherwise.

usdcad long here for me.
keep in mind NFP is up ahead as well as CAD style NFP too.
basically a big big big big big double header.
looking for modest TP

late restart to the new week.
got hit in the head by an opponent during football after being caught from my blind side.
(and the ball wasn't even near me: if not i would never have let that happen)
one moment i was jumping in the air. the next i was flat on my back with concussion + whiplash.

good thing trading isn't as dangerous (thanks to stops).

so USDCAD trade was stopped out when it cracked the 240line.
also obviously the super strong CAD data with the bad us employment rate also told me to get out(news usually doesn't work all the time....but when the data beats estimate by 3 times++? and the other symbol doesnt makes it case too? just too obvious).
130611 uc.png
while USDCAD trade was stopped for about 40pips.
the virtual(but real about 10.4 technique) short XAUUSD trade blew out of the water for a good USD27 bucks of profit(1410->1383).

monday started with GBPUSD trade setting up n activated.
now waiting on it to go the next line WMR1.

GU. surprised it moved now.

was prepared to wait for the actual UK session.
plus there's UK data.
so i guess my TP may be early.
but i'm ok.

this is 10.4 in front of your eyes.
